Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Comfort rating is unusually low — The hotel scores just 2.5 in comfort, which may reflect dated furnishings or a less plush feel despite the room size. Some guests note the hotel is a 'little old'.
  • Check-in is late and limited — You can only check in between 18:00 and 23:30, which is restrictive if you arrive earlier. Plan your arrival accordingly.
  • Not right at the station — While some guests say it's 'opposite' Kyoto Station, others describe it as slightly out of the way. The walk may be a few minutes, and it's not directly on public transport.
  • Adults-only policy — This is not a family-friendly property. If you're travelling with children, you'll need to look elsewhere.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so you can't bring your furry companion.

“Very good location – just across from Kyoto Station and the airport limousine bus stop. The room was bigger than the average Japanese hotel room, and the price was reasonable. Convenient for transport, shopping, and dining.”

“The hotel is a bit off the beaten path, but worth it for the experience. The room was enormous, with a massive bed, TV, massage chair, karaoke machine, and whirlpool bath. Staff were helpful and respectful, and the breakfast delivered to the room was delicious. Close to a convenience store and a short distance from Fushimi Inari.”
